I recently finished this hunter. It has a nice twisted pattern blade 4 1/8 inch long with amber Stag scales. The gaurd is Stainless. This is two views of the same knife. Lin

Lin, I think this is my favorite design of yours, it's similar to one you posted earlier that I believe you mentioned you won a show with. Awesome knife!

Thats beautiful Lin. I realy like it.

Lin Rhea · « **Reply #13 on:** January 30, 2010, 04:07:00 PM »

Dan,
I have only used spinners that I made. I hammered these pins with a small ball pien. Stag is pretty tough stuff, so I go ahead and plan on a pretty good head to hold a little inward pressure. The pin size is 1/8, so the head is slightly larger, but not by much. The dips and grooves in the stag always make it an adventure, but I like the look and I believe it to be very durable. Thanks, Lin

I love the look, very nice knife Lin. Sometime, would you please make a post on your spinner, and how to make one? Dan

One of these days I have to get me one of your knives.

That is a very beautiful knife. I love the flame stag handles.

Beautiful knife Lin!! Do you use the Mortised tang contruction on your stag knives also?

James

Lin Rhea · « **Reply #19 on:** February 04, 2010, 10:37:00 AM »

Yes James. The scales are two bark Stag slabs together, back to back. They have to be dead flat to make the good joint. Lin
